On Malik Davis per @clarencehilljr: "..primary backup to starter Javonte Williams" Again, this is just another data point from someone close to the team that Malik Davis is the RB2 and worth taking shots on as a handcuff in a top offensePositiveNewsAug 31, 2026
No Phil Mafah or Jaydon Blue on the Cowboys practice squad RB Room officially: Javonte Williams - RB1 Malik Davis - RB2 Emari Demercado - RB3 PS: Izzy Abanikanda @Marcus_Mosher and I covered whether we are worried about the Cowboys RB Room (below)PositiveNewsAug 31, 2026
One of the greatest honors to date, to be on @lockedoncowboys - a show I’ve listened to daily for years We cover: -RB Room (Javonte Williams, Malik Davis, RB3) -Pass Catchers (Ryan Flournoy, Lamb, Pickens, Ferguson) -Defensive strategy + expectationsPositiveNewsAug 29, 2026
No Phil Mafah as the preseason game told us last night Malik Davis (do it all, do it right) with a sprinkle of Jaydon Blue is how the RB2 situation probably goes if Javonte were to miss timePositiveNewsAug 29, 2026
Quick Cowboys Review: Cowboys rested all of their skill players that are projected to make the roster To me that means Phil Mafah is not making it and Malik Davis and Jaydon Blue are your RB2 & RB3 behind Javonte WilliamsPositiveValueAug 23, 2026
More thoughts: Javonte Williams probably doesn’t see a significant reduction in work I don’t think it’s definitive enough to confidently take Malik Davis in the last round of best ball Redraft go aheadPositiveNewsAug 22, 2026
ICYMI: I did a film review of every team who played last night Rico Dowdle/Jaylen Warren thoughts Pat Bryant & Evan Engram interest Much morePositiveUsageAug 13, 2026
Schottenheimer made it known at OTAs that Javonte Williams would get less work in the Spring/Summer so they could let the young guys cook You're about to see Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah go at it for RB2 duties Take: It would probably be a split between both and Blue has a complementary role in the O always/even with Mafah if Javonte got hurt.PositiveUsageAug 12, 2026
2 important notes from Cowboys Joint Practices via @clarencehilljr 1) Jaydon Blue fumbled and Phil Mafah got more 1st team reps 2) Brevyn Spann-Ford is getting some 1st team reps (unclear if this was 2TE set or what) Take: Blue and Mafah are the clear backups (unlikely to be Malik Davis). If Javonte went down it’s a split with Mafah doing the thunder and Blue doing the lightning IMO. No reports on this, but I also don’t think Jake Ferguson is guaranteed an every down role and that BSF can pu...PositiveNewsAug 5, 2026
Jaydon Blue is certainly shaking up to be the favorite for RB2 duties and complementary duties next to Javonte Williams Great writing here by @VoiceOfTheStar depicting his growthPositiveUsageAug 3, 2026
If you were worried about Javonte Williams' role - don't be Brian Schottenheimer named him to the team's leadership council signifying his importance to the team (well deserved) via @tommy_yarrishPositiveUsageJul 31, 2026
Jaydon Blue alternated with Javonte Williams with the 1st team My Take: I think he may have his own complementary role in this backfield (say, 5-10 touches). If Javonte got hurt, it would elevate but prob not 15+. Solid dart throw. Via @clarencehilljr
